Joann Rose Watchman

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Joann Rose Watchman. She departed from this world and reunited with her late husband Henry Reynolds Watchman on June 24th, 2024 in Phoenix Arizona surrounded by her loved ones. She was born in Toadlena, NM to the late Jessie Begay. Her siblings are Stanley Hardy, Cecelia Sandman, Rita Holly, Jimmy Tauglchee and the late Lillian Cohoe. But she mainly grew up with the Alger Family in Orem UT. Her loving foster parents were the late Afton and Ellen Alger. They welcomed her into their home at a young age with their children, Keith Alger, Ellen Afton Lunceford and Raymond Begay.

She leaves behind three headstrong children, seven awesome grandchildren and one handsome great grandson. She devoted many years to social service work.

Unfortunately, there will be one memorial service held in her honor for family and friends at the LDS church 1310 E 25th Street Farmington NM at 9:30 a.m. The reception is to follow.
